Heavy Trailer Systems Technician

Join our Austell, GA team as a Heavy Trailer Systems Technician and keep our semi-trailers safe, reliable, and road‑ready. You’ll blend hands-on diagnostics with precise maintenance and repair work in a dynamic shop environment.

Morning starts with a review of scheduled trailers and a walkaround inspection. You’ll dig into brake, suspension, and electrical systems to pinpoint issues, then move into routine upkeep—oil changes, tire rotations, and brake adjustments. When components are worn or damaged, you’ll repair or replace parts to meet strict safety standards. Throughout the day, you’ll document service details, partner with teammates on tricky problems, and keep your bay organized and compliant with all safety protocols. As new techniques emerge, you’ll stay current on industry best practices to continuously sharpen your craft.
